Great food abounds at many of the local restaurants, including tasty quantities of fresh seafood.
Rua de Pescadores is home to most of Salema's restaurants and bars.
O Carapau Frances, Corner of Estr. EM537 and Largo de Liberdade. Open 7PM to 10:30PM. O Carapau is a small Greek and Portuguese restaurant right on the beach front, at the intersection of the town's two main roads. They have a take-out service if you feel like staying in your room for the night, and their seafood pizza (pizza di mare) is to die for. Cash only.
The Atlantico Restaurant & Bar, 1 Ria 28 de Janeiro, 282 695 142. Open noon to midnight. A sizable establishment, the Atlantico features a short stairway right down to the beach (and the town's only ATM out front). The seafood, of course, is fresh and tasty, and the restaurant features one of the more well-stocked bars in town.
The Salema Market, located partway up the Rua de Pescadores, offers a variety of foods to support your picnicking needs, including bread, olives, wine, cheeses, and other produce. Open 8AM to 8PM.
Mira Mar Restaurant, Travessa Mira Mar 6, 919 560 339. Open noon to midnight. Mira Mar is a more expensive but worthwhile proposition, located at the base of Rua de Pescadores, near the beach. Their whitefish is quite tasty, and the bar makes a sangria that will forever alter your sangria standards.
Restaurante O Lourenco, Rua 28 deJaneiro, Salema, 8650 Vila do Bispo (Just north of the main harbour, on the back road to Figueira), ☎ 282-698-622. Fantastic venue for fresh fish, beautifully cooked. Great service by friendly waiters. All for a decent price. Sit inside or on the terrace across the cobbled lane. �
